I loved this story! After I learned that this was one of J. K. Rowling's favorite books as a child it went to the top of my TBR. Luckily, I found a copy at the library book sale and purchased it and read it almost right away.
It reminded my of A Little Princess and The Secret Garden, except that this story is definitely fantastical. I adored the storyline, the beautiful descriptions, animal friends, and charming home and country. There are definite Christian themes to the story that are reminiscent of The Chronicles of Narnia and A Wrinkle in Time.

This is so lovely it breaks my heart! Everything is so fine and beautiful and lovely, and yet it's totally believable and makes me want to make my home and my clothes and everything about my life as fine and beautiful and lovely and bright as I can!

Můj názor: Tahle kniha se mi moc líbila. Byla totiž taková milá, přátelská...možná se v ní hodně popisovalo krajiny a květiny, ale prostě, autorka to vyprávěla z takovou radostí, že z knihy doslova sršel život a láska. Nemohu si pomoci, je o jedna z mých oblíbených knih. Možná proto, že končí šťastným koncem. Možná bych knize jen vytkla, že všechna odhalení a tajemství se vyjevila na konci, hlavní postava to pořád odkládala :)
Doporučuji tuto knihu všem a všem :)
